Description

I’m very pleased to offer FOUR 1930s slip-shade sconces by Virden!

This listing is for four matching wall sconces, and from Virden’s Meredith Series.

The VIRDEN Company

The John C. Virden Company was Canadian-based, at 19 Curity Ave in Toronto. They also had a US presence at 6103 Longfellow Avenue in Cleveland, Ohio. You can Google search the latter, and “stand” in front of the massive brick factory. It is now long abandoned, and its countless widows broken. But it wasn’t that long ago that this factory – like countless such factories across America – was teeming with life, and supporting millions of families. This, back when America actually made stuff.
